#4 Honestly, I think that Russia is so cash-strapped for hard currency, they would provide "civilian" nuclear technology and help construct a reactor in the Pankisi Gorge, if the checks didn't bounce.

#5 I think Pankisi Gorge is a very good place for an application of Russian nuclear technology.

#6 Agree with Shep, what are the consequences for failure to comply with the deadline? Sanctions? Not good enough. Also agree with AC, Russia needs to make a big retaliatory move in response to Beslan.

#8 Pankisi Gorge has a new mosque, a "friendship" house for visiting Wahhabis and a Wal-Martâ¦what better time for a nuc strike!

#9 Refusal by Iran to comply would produce a new Middle East crisis in which the issue would almost certainly be referred to the United Nations security council, which could opt for punitive action.

The "punitive action" being.....?

Not much time for sanctions, '05 has been for a while the line-in-the-sand past which many believe Iran will have become a nuclear power. Once that happens the world's options become severely limited (witness North Korea) and everyone in the game knows it.

#13 Zhang, by a replay of Iraq, I meant that we will go to the UN to authorize action. The French will get supine for bribes from Iran. We will determine we can't wait any longer and we will act iwthout UN approval. I suspect we will send no troops into Iran but our inventory of soon to be obsolescent cruise missles and JDAMs will be severly depleted without the Navy or Air Force having to prepare Environmental Impact Statements and Iran will be out a lot of nuclear facilities.
